New Photo Book - THE LIGHT OF DAYS GONE BY Photographs by Craig Varjabedian
Award-winning photographer Craig Varjabedian’s new book "The Light of Days Gone By" was 45 years in the making. It celebrates with stunning imagery the journey of a photographer and the beautiful light he has witnessed and captured along the way.
- (1888PressRelease) September 15, 2020 - The Light of Days Gone By is a testament to Varjabedian’s vision and many years of hard work and will appeal to anyone who appreciates fine photography.
Varjabedian’s photographs from the magnificent red hills of Ghost Ranch and gleaming white dunes of White Sands to more faraway places—from strong Native Americans to weathered cowboys and more—these expansive landscapes and intimate portraits are all presented in this beautifully printed book.
Museum curator Catherine Whitney has said that “Craig Varjabedian’s photography captures, with arresting clarity, the ineffable whispers of time and spirit layered deep in New Mexico's cultural landscape. Through the artful combination of his compassionate eye and technical virtuosity, he evokes the past in the present and the holy in the everyday.”
The 48 color and black & white photographs were carefully curated by Varjabedian’s long time studio director Cindy Lane, to not only share the breadth of this photographer’s career but also to reveal relationships between individual images and from the themes he has explored over the years. Complementing the images are two essays. Cindy Lane provides insight into the photographer’s artistic vision and artist Myra Bullington looks not only at the importance of photographs as an aid to memory but also shares an appreciation for the photographer and his work. This beautiful hardcover book is available at the photographer's studio shoppe at www.craigvarjabedian.com/shoppe or Amazon.com.
